Re: Quick Point Gap Setter
I have one for quick on-the-road point gap setting. You'd be amazed at how many people I am out touring with that complain of no power and we find the point gap worn closed. A quick adjustment and the engine runs strong again.
I did a test when I first got it. I set the points with the tool, then measured the gap with a feeler gauge and concluded that it sets the points a few thousandths wider than I really want them to be.
So I set the points a touch tight with the tool. The cam follower will wear as it runs and close the gap down to where I like them.
